At the launch of the site, Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny said, “This new online business will market a slice of Ireland to those who are proud to be connected in some way to Ireland, or appreciate the craft and workmanship that go into so many of the goods that signify this country.

“At a time of serious economic challenges in the country, I believe that Siopa.com represents the very best of Irish innovation and entrepreneurship with the real potential to grow jobs and exports. It is companies like these: export-led, online focused, that have the potential to return to Ireland and its people a sense of pride, financial stability, and hope for the future.”
